À propos de cet audio

 “Why We Sleep is an important and fascinating book…Walker taught me a lot about this basic activity that every person on Earth needs. I suspect his book will do the same for you.” —Bill Gates

A New York Times bestseller and international sensation, this “stimulating and important book” (Financial Times) is a fascinating dive into the purpose and power of slumber.

With two appearances on CBS This Morning and Fresh Air's most popular interview of 2017, Matthew Walker has made abundantly clear that sleep is one of the most important but least understood aspects of our life. Until very recently, science had no answer to the question of why we sleep, or what good it served, or why we suffer such devastating health consequences when it is absent. Compared to the other basic drives in life—eating, drinking, and reproducing—the purpose of sleep remains more elusive.

Within the brain, sleep enriches a diversity of functions, including our ability to learn, memorize, and make logical decisions. It recalibrates our emotions, restocks our immune system, fine-tunes our metabolism, and regulates our appetite. Dreaming creates a virtual reality space in which the brain melds past and present knowledge, inspiring creativity.

In this “compelling and utterly convincing” (The Sunday Times) book, preeminent neuroscientist and sleep expert Matthew Walker provides a revolutionary exploration of sleep, examining how it affects every aspect of our physical and mental well-being. Charting the most cutting-edge scientific breakthroughs, and marshalling his decades of research and clinical practice, Walker explains how we can harness sleep to improve learning, mood and energy levels, regulate hormones, prevent cancer, Alzheimer’s and diabetes, slow the effects of aging, and increase longevity. He also provides actionable steps towards getting a better night’s sleep every night.

Clear-eyed, fascinating, and accessible, Why We Sleep is a crucial and illuminating book. Written with the precision of Atul Gawande, Andrew Solomon, and Sherwin Nuland, it is “recommended for night-table reading in the most pragmatic sense” (The New York Times Book Review).

This book is phenomenal. Very insightful. Helps you understand how sleep is the panacea. I'm reconsidering my life and how I analyze public policy. I've been recommending to everyone I know!

Potentially life and society changing!

This book is a must read/listen to anyone and everyone, especially parents. Matthew Walker pulls presents the work in a clear and concise manner, walking through the numerous findings of the recent research in sleep: why we sleep, how we sleep, what sleep does, what sleep does not do and the terrors that not sleeping enough exacts on our bodies and minds. Steve West does a great job with the narration, keeping a clear, steady tone throughout.

If you need any motivation to go to bed earlier, stop staring at screens at night or to stick with your children's often daunting sleep training, this book will provide all the motivation you need ... and a whole lot more. Since listening to this I have dramatically changed my sleep habits for the better :)

Amazing, insightful and scary

The Audible pdf should include the summary of sleep tips and other keys points to motivate the listener to improve their nightly sleep.

I highly Recommend this book

I really loved this book, but I really struggled to enjoy the narration... an elitist British accent with zero personality. Ugh. If you can get past that, you’ll find the content, supporting research and findings utterly fascinating, revolutionary and super relevant. This book will answer every question you ever had about sleep and it will help you to diagnose, understand and treat your sleep problems and enhance positive sleep habits.

A fantastic look at something so much the population overlook and yet is something that could give us all the results we need in life if we would actually implement the importance of sleep into our everyday life.
I have and it is with incredible results.
Must read.

The book uncovers how vital proper sleep habits are for our health and what happens to our mind and body if we are sleep deprived. And surprisingly, we are sleep deprived in a modern society!

Amazing book!

He definitely goes in detail on why we sleep and it is interesting. You also get warned of the dangers many times throughout for not getting enough sleep or good enough quality. Which is good. personally, I would have liked hearing more suggestions on how to get better sleep. I didn't get a lot of new information as far as that goes out of this book, but I did learn a lot about the importance of it.
